Like the food here. It’s a decent size restaurant with outdoor seating as well.First time sitting in eating here.The place was dirty with messy and dusty tables.They also had a big party going on, probably their own people because the kids of the party were constantly running in n out of the restaurant. They were pulling any number of drinks from the fridge, messing with it etc. They were going in the kitchen and touching whatever they wanted with zero supervision from any adults of the party or the restaurant people.Anyways now the food. I enjoyed the food here. It was flavorful and filling. Special mention of the lentil soup they do as a side which is just amazing.The falafels were gigantic and yummy. Forgot the name of the meat dish which I ordered. The wrap was huge and good too.For the food taste and value for money it’s a nice place. But this is not a place where you want to dine in and enjoy, it’s very basic that way.Would go again though!!

A little hole on the wall for middle Eastern food. The family is from Lebanon and the food is delicious. I had a beef and lamb shawerma with seasoned fries. It was spicy and delicious. Love to do lunch here when I am at our home office in San Ramon, CA.

The most delicious shish kebab combination I have ever had. The meat is tender and soft. The sauces are excellent. Small business with excellent service.

We tried an overload of food from Gyro, Kafta, Shawerma, Rice, Fattoush. The Taboulleh was so fresh and had a very nice lemony taste. ALL the meats were DELICIOUS but I think the gyro and rice was my favorite. The gal in the back cooking was so kind. And the gal working the register was so helpful in telling us where all the hookah lounges in the bay were after we were finished. Loved her!! She was so sweet and very helpful! I look forward to coming back here to eat and looking forward to nice warm nights to come so I can enjoy the outdoor seating.

A no-frills eating space where you order at the counter and then pick a table. They seem to do a lot of take-out business. The family that runs the place is super-friendly and the service is excellent. The food was really good and flavorful, with that chargrilled taste that I love. But to be honest, the chicken kebab was a little on the dry side. It came out of the kitchen so quickly that I suspect it wasnt cooked to order, but had been previously prepared. Either that, or it stayed on the grill a little too long. Everything else was just right. I would definitely go back and give it another try.

We did not get any pita bread or hummus with the $19.99 entree. Falafels were too fired and dry. Felt like a thick burnt layer outside and dry inside. I didn’t want to go back for pita bread. Dal soup had much oil. It was too pricey for vegetarians and vegans. I hope yogurt was used in the dip instead of sour cream but I didn’t try. It was meant to be tahini. However others liked their chicken entrees.
